Patreon Dispatches from the Curiosity Shop 03: Seriously, Mummy, WTF?
I think we can all agree that there are many things that one should never do to and/or with a mummy. And I’m also pretty sure that, for every single one of the things mentioned in this episode, that really should have gone without saying.
Except for maybe the triple cat mummy? That might fall under the category of ‘I don’t feel that I need to explain my art to you, Warren.’
